Chapter 2578 I Am Happy with You, but You Don’t Know (24)

After practicing calligraphy for a while, it was already noon.

Du Jiusheng glanced at the sky outside the window, frowned slightly and said, "Why hasn't the mute slave come back yet?"

For some reason, Luo Qingchen's heart skipped a beat and she frowned: "I didn't see the mute slave when I got up this morning. I thought he was on duty in the palace, didn't I?"

"No." Du Jiusheng shook his head and said, "Working as an errand in the palace is an extra monthly salary. The mute slave is a slave in the cold palace. He can only work as an errand once a month, just yesterday."

Du Jiu Sheng's eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter, and he felt vaguely uneasy.

"The mute slave doesn't seem like someone who would mess up things." Luo Qingchen bit her lip and said, "I think I might have run into some trouble."

The word 'trouble' she said was an understatement. That day, a mute slave was bullied by a palace maid in front of her house. This time, I'm afraid she really encountered some danger, so she couldn't come back.

"I'll go look for him." Du Jiusheng put on his coat and said, "Wait for me at Beihan Palace."

"I'll go with you." Luo Qingchen said with trembling eyebrows, "Maybe I can be of some help."

"Need not."

"Brother Jiu Sheng!"

Du Jiusheng looked at her anxious look and finally nodded and said, "Then don't talk too much and just follow me."

"Okay!" Luo Qingchen nodded seriously.

After exiting the gate of Beihan Palace, you can see the endless corridor.

There was a deep feeling of sinking into the thick snow, and the mute slave's shoe prints could still be vaguely seen along the way.

It was still snowing in the sky, and the shoe prints were not very shallow, which proved that the mute slave had not been away for a long time.

It was probably the time when she woke up——

But the footprints became shallower and shallower, and by the time they reached the fork in the road, they could no longer be seen clearly.

Walking to the end of the corridor, there are roads on the left and right. The left leads to the Imperial Kitchen and other concubines' bedrooms, and the right leads to the Imperial Medical Center and the Prince's East Palace.

"Brother Jiu Sheng, you go to the left, and I'll go to the right." Luo Qingchen thought for a moment and said, "Save time. If you don't find him, come look for me. If I don't find him, I'll go look for you."

Although Luo Qingchen's idea was a good one, Du Jiusheng still hesitated.

She is not wearing the clothes of a palace maid. If she meets some tricky little master, she will be in trouble.

“Brother Jiu Sheng, it’s not too late.”

"Okay." Du Jiusheng sighed softly: "Be careful."

"No matter what I say, the queen brought her into the palace. Under normal circumstances, no one is willing to touch such a nail." Luo Qingchen thought for a moment and said, "Brother Jiu Sheng, on the other hand, has not left Beihan Palace for a long time, so he must be more careful. .”

"rest assured--"

At the end of the corridor, one of them turned to the left and the other to the right.

Luo Qingchen took two steps to the right and couldn't help but look back at Du Jiusheng.

He was walking alone in the heavy snow. When the cold wind blew, he looked so depressed.

"Brother Jiu Sheng, I hope nothing happens to the mute slave. I hope we are all well..."

She murmured to herself, turned her head and searched to the right.

Occasionally, I would meet a few palace maids on the road, and they would all whisper to each other. Luo Qingchen glared at him with cold eyes, and left in a hurry.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, she heard the sharp voices of several palace maids.

"Mute, your foot-pressing technique is really good. It makes me feel comfortable."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! I was beaten like this just to get a few tonics, hahaha... But why don't I look distressed at all, on the contrary, I feel particularly disgusted!"

"A mute is a mute, it makes you sick and makes you want to vomit!"
